A conference to address the broad topic of the
history of law reporting and the collecting of
legal decisions, primarily in Scotland but with the
development of law reporting situated in its broader
British, European and comparative context. The
conference is intended to consider subjects such
as how the role of precedent developed, in what
form were the earliest records of judicial opinions or
decisions, how the form of the modern law report
emerged and related issues.

Proposals for papers (proposals should not be more
than 400 words in length) should be submitted to
secretary@sclr.scot no later than 30th September
2015.
The conference is open to all interested in this
subject area. It is expected that the fee, to include
meals and refreshments during the conference
and a conference dinner (but not overnight
accommodation) will be in the order of £150. Please
email secretary@sclr.scot if you wish to be sent a
booking form.
